Day 2 of training day in Auckland

Lub-Dub-Lup-Dup . . . Day 1 of my intern training commenced at 8.30am. First thing, all of us were assigned into different groups. Guess that was random selection. The best part about training days were morning and afternoon tea breaks and lunch! I just felt like in Uni again. Sigh, I really miss uni life now, not the exam and study part tho. 

 Day 1 lunch


After lunch

Susanla, from Otago, & Jo, an oversea pharmacist

One of the Auckland grad. She's very brainy!

The training ended one hour earlier and hence I met up with Jo at Chocolate boutique which she said it is a must to try. She mentioned that too when I first went to Auckland this year. Finally, I got a chance to check this cafe out. 

Captured this before the owner said "No photo please" *oppsie*

Carrot cake. So-so only

The chocolate is like a syrup which is really thick and viscous! So YUM! 


Look at the thickness with milk poured on top of the chocolate "syrup"


Just next to chocolate boutique cafe



Jo was told about a chinese restaurant with pretty good food. Hence, without thinking, we drove from Parnell to K-road in the city. K-road is actually Karangahape Road in full. It is a long street where there are different restaurants, shops including those selling dodgy stuff. You know what I mean lar.

We did lots of round looking for the restaurant so decided to just park our car in front of a turkish restaurant. Okay, a very embarrassing incident happened here. It took me 15-20mins to get into a parking lot. *i can't do parallel parking!!* Then when I have successfully got into the space, the diners clapped. *I very paiseh man* Worst is when I got out of the car, i realised the parking lot was really spacious! -_-"

Oh gees, Jo and I really couldn't find the restaurants even after meeting up with Bea halfway at the Asian grocery shop. Consequently, we just thought of going to Daikoku in the city. We walked up the slope to Bea's car and then saw the restaurant!!! Sooo happy! We went in without any hesitation.



Feel so homey cos of the environment
